Re: Do you eat while on the computer?

No. My mouse and keyboard are fairly old, scratched and dusty, but I'm pretty sure there isn't much food particulate on them. Wanting to keep my hands clean stems from a very early childhood memory of someone chuckling about future possibilities of keep clean hands as an adult with a job. Challenge ...

Re: What's going on in your city/country/region?

I'll let a local explain some of the council stupidity in this video: https://fb.watch/4pYEKLQGj-/ This was the way down to the shore, which the council only seem to now want to allow buses and cycles to access. They didn't even announce those first changes and had no signs up with cars suddenly dri...

Re: Little Raves

No kidding. So your company has to adapt to the holiday standards of the country you're based in? Or did you switch companies? US holidays are a joke. :/ I guess I've got it worse because freelancers don't get paid holidays though. I recently watched something about a Scandinavian country that not ...

Someone got stabbed in the heed and run over, but I think you have to do more than merely annoy and already ornery Scot to receive that. They found some other dude in the burn (small river) Edinburgh's council are insisting on "spaces for people" schemes that cost millions and claim back spaces from...

Re: Ancestry

I thought I had a grandparent from the four corners of Britain in England, N. Ireland, Wales, and Scotland, but after DNA testing, it looks like the Welsh one was more Irish and has a clear line traced from Dublin to Liverpool (she was from Liverpool) I'm 96% British and Irish, 2% French and German,...

Re: Little Raves

Here's an example of what I was talking about previously with the new generation of AI, machine learning "computer enhance" photo restoration products now hitting the market. To my knowledge there's only one so far, called Remini. It's the one that's licensed by MyHeritage website to recreate the im...
